Flat front tire questions

Got a flat on rear (nail) last year in Montgomery, 3 hours away from home. Luckily it was the morning I was leaving hotel so I was in Eastchase (town). Ended up driving on the flat for nearly 3 miles (very slowly), completely flat might I add, to the nearest Walmart for a plug kit and air. The plug kit didn't seal super well, stopped for air twice on way home. It would leak 10-15 psi every hour. But it worked and got me home, pretty much running 75-80mph for 2.5 of the 3 hour ride home (mostly interstate).
 
Use some soapy water and find the leak. Check the bead area. My NC leaked at the bead when new. Had to dismount the tire and clean the rim. It has been fine ever since.
